Pups are 10 days old today!
Because this is not a huge litter by any means, they all get ample time at the buffet. The puppies are subsequently becoming little tubs and relish in the all-you-can eat mentality of this whelping box.
The above is a typical picture of the daily goings-ons. Eat, sleep and eat some more. As usual, Little Red is sprawled out on something or other...this time he chose his momma's leg.
And you may have missed her in the first photo, but Miss Pink chose a more intimate spot to sleep with her mom. It's moments like these that make my heart swell.
This is not a good photo, but will give you the idea of how much the little porkers are eating. There is nothing wrong with being chubby at this stage of course. The pups are putting on about 3 oz a day now and weigh around 2 1/2 pounds. So they have almost tripled in size since their birth!
Cute, sweet faces.
Their eyes should start to open in the next day or so. They are also doing little push-ups on their wobbly legs, so walking should not be far off as well.
